For me, not using your vehicle's turn signal is a lot like not returning the shopping cart in that I think you're a beast who doesn't deserve to live in society. Like you can't literally lift a finger to make the roads safer for yourself and everyone else? Go live in the woods and drink creek water.

Mitch is one of the singular villains of American history, personally responsible for the destruction of our democracy and our government at a level above anyone save Trump himself he is a vile man on the level of John Calhoun and should be remembered as such

Andrew Lang described the way economists use statistics as the way “a drunk uses a lamppost—for support rather than illumination.” I keep coming back to that line when reading the transparently cynical academic efforts to provide support (and not illumination) for Trump’s birthright citizenship EO.

I know Stathis. He was a colleague of mine at the University of Chicago. He is a pretty buttoned-down scholar. For him to tweet this out is… something.

As a journalist who covers extremism at the local level, I think it’s a mistake to view Trump’s Napoleonic statement as solely about presidential power. Consider if it’s interpreted as a wink and a nod for any extremist to act outside the law to “save” the country as they see fit

These guys are leading lights of the conservative legal movement. They tried to reverse-engineer an originalist argument against birthright citizenship for the children of undocumented immigrants. And the BEST they could manage has a massive flaw that renders their whole theory demonstrably bogus!
